The White Man Of the New South.

Indeed, it is the white man of the
South more than the black that has been
freed by the civil war; and the greatest
blessing which has thus far resulted to
the South from The emancipation of the
Southern slaves is its effect upon the
white man of that region in transform
ing him from dependent idler, or "gen-
tleman of LEISURE" supported by his
slaves, into an Independent, self.reliant
worker. We speak of the typical, rep
resentative Southern white man, not Of
all classes, for there we're working white
men in the Old South and there are idle
white men in the New. But the white
man of the New South is pre- eminently
q worker as compared with the white
man of the Old South, who, if not an
idler, was at least man of multitude
nous leisure. But having now been set
free from that bondage to leisure and
that contempt Of labor which is insepa.
rable from slave-holding, the representa-
tive of that region has become new
man, and has entered upon new proba.
tion among the industrious races of the
earth. If the Old South had contempt
for the worker, the New South has a
greater contempt for the do.nothing and
the idler-for the man who does no hon
est work, it matters not how white his
ezchequer. The gentleman idler" has
lost caste in the South; he is an institn-
tion of the past.

we're true tha: the managers Of the Ge.
neva experimental concern can teach the
farmers of this State better how to farm
than they now know to do it, the station
should be blown up with dynamite, as
mischievous contrivance to make the
State do for some of its citizens what
they should do for themselves; nox'
ious contrivance to make people look to
a Government for the good they desire,
and not wholly to themselves; contri-
vance to stop the development of the
American citizen into independence and
full manhood, and turn him into loater
and beggar. But the experimental sta
ton cannot teach the farmers of New
York their business.
Everybody understands that while
these ridiculous experiments were making
in Geneva, there was practical, possibly
gainful, business done in channel which
always connects these public semi-chari-
ties with private commerce. The man.
ayers last report contains evidence that
the station is an adjunct to the business
of forty one different firms Of seedsmen,
nurserymen, agricultural tool manufac-
turers, and fabricators of artifician ma.
nures, in various parts of the United
States. The wares of all these trafickers
are thoroughly advertised in the body of
the report by judicious and skilfully
frequent reference.
To resume the hacking out of chunks
of agricultural wisdom, as salaried at
Geneva with $4,000 year, the expert
menters actually print in an expensive
book that corn requires hot weather, and
"yields best under high maximum tenn.
peratures," that "a cool temperature of
the soil is advantageous to potatoes; :"
that farmers ought to select their seed
corn from the best ears; that i. in putting
this seed away for spring use they should
put it where it will keep dry and not
get wet; that "after potato tops com.
mence to die there is no appreciable
growth in the tubers that are of mer.
chantable size? that "there is 40 rela.
ton between the crop and the amount of
fertilizer used"-which, if true, would
be mighty bad for the fertilizer business;
that cultivation of corn is not beneficial
except 80 far as it removes weeds /; that
if potatoes are too closely planted, it will
be advantageous to pull up some of the
stalks: that it hurts potato crop con-
siderahly to roll down the tops on the
18th of July, and hurts it more to NOW
them of with scythe on that day; that
experiments running through successive
years to determine comparative prolidcacy
and relative order of maturity, are of no
sort of value; that it is Improbable to
produce crops of OK eye daisies; that III
the variation in the coeficient of viscosity
of the fat is due to difference in the size
of the milk globules, the relation between
this coeficient and the efficiency of the
churn is easily explained"
That. will do! In the name of New
York's insulted farmers and in the name
of good government, we demand of the
Legislature to abolish the Geneva Agri-
cultural Experiment Station. It is a
humbug.

Sad Story of a Young White Man.

At the March term of the Court for
Marion County, iu 1886, Pinckney Bry-
ant, young white man, was convicted
in two cases of malicious mischief, and
sentenced to three years. imprisonment
in the Penitentiary. On the 9TH of July
following Governor Thompson, for good
and sufficient reasons, commuted the sem
.tence of the Court to one years impris-
onment. On the 18th of August, 1886,
while at work at the Guignard brickyard
in Lexington County, near Columbia,
Bryant ran away from the guard, and
succeeded.in making his escape. Short.
ly after his escape Col. Lipscomb, the
superintendent of the Penitentiary, re-
ceived letter for Bryant from his moth
er, whereupon he Immediately wrote her,
advising her to induce the son to return
to the prison and serve out bis sentence,
particularly as his time was so short, and
thus avoid the odium of being always g
fugitive from justice and in danger Of
being killed at any time in case he resis.
ted arrest as an escaped convict. Moth
ing further was heard from them until
the early part of the present month,
when gentleman Of the neighborhood
in which Bryant lived in Marion County
wrote to the superintendent on behalf Of
the family to make arrangements for hia
return. He was informed by return
mail that if Bryant would return and
give himself up, without putting the
State to any expense Or trouble, he would
not be punished for running away.
Strangely enough, the very night that
the letter was received by the gentleman
in question, and before he could commu.
nicate with the family posse attempted
to capture Bryant, and as he endesvored
to escape from them, riddled him with
buckshot. An inquest was held by Trial
Justice H. McRae, acting coroner, and
the finding of the jury was, that Bryant
came to his death at the hands of parties
unknown to the jury. An official report
Of the findings Of the jury has been fur
nished to the superintendent by Trial

Restlessness That Ruins Homes.

Thousands Of farmers every year leave
pleasant homes in the older settled States
and make long and tedious pilgrimages
to newer States and Territories, not
driven to it by necessity, but by a chronic
restlessness-an idea that it is possible
somewhere else to get on lit faster in
the world. In nine cases out of ten the
man would be better off where he is, but
he is never satisfied until he has made at
least one or two changes. Homes are
destroyed in the most ruthless manner in
pursuit of this phantom of bettering ones
self-homes which can never be really
restored to the family, for home is some-
thing more than the roof which shelters
US. The associations of childhood, the
friends of early days, the memories of
the past, the ancestral graves upon the
hillside-are these nothing? It will
take more years than the most of us can
afford to build up new home and get
into the feeling with which we regard our
present one, be it ever so humble.
